Description and Reviews:
Toro Albala 1973 PX 20cl luxury gift bottle
Toro Albala are famous for their award-winning vintage Pedro Ximenez (PX) wines. We are delighted to offer this 95 Point, 1973 PX Montila-Moriles presented in a beautiful 20cl gift pack
The dehydrated grapes fermented between 3% and 9% and then the wine was fortified and today bottled at 17%. Very perfumed and aromatic, a little exotic, with even some minty notes. The palate is very concentrated, round, with an oily texture that fills your mouth. An elegant endless finish.
Tasting Notes
With a residual sugar content of 320g/litre this is a dessert in a glass! The nose is complex with layers of dried fruits, dates, figs, plums, raisins, coffee, mango and chocolate with a hint of mint. The palate is immense and the sugar is balanced by a structured acidity that keeps the sweetness in check. The experience concludes with a never-ending finish. Drink from now to 2040+
An authentic artisanal gem elaborated with Pedro Ximénez grapes, harvested in August 1973 with temperatures that reached 45 Celsius, following the traditional grape raising system. An exceptional white wine that has aged in oak butts and has been bottled in the most optimal moment. It has been awarded with the Grand Gold Mundus Vinis and 95 Robert Parker points.
Toro Albala are pioneers of the PX style and are the only winery in the world to offer a range of PX vintages. Each one of them is taken care of with exclusivity, from the harvest to the raisining, obtaining a unique personality.
